We give an upper bound that relates the minimum weight of a nonzero componentwise product of codewords from some given number of linear codes, with the dimensions of these codes. Its shape is a direct generalization of the classical…
In this work, we propose two criteria for linear codes obtained from the Plotkin sum construction being symplectic self-orthogonal (SO) and linear complementary dual (LCD). As specific constructions, several classes of symplectic SO codes…
In this paper, we study the connection between polar codes and product codes. Our analysis shows that the product of two polar codes is again a polar code, and we provide guidelines to compute its frozen set on the basis of the frozen sets…
We associate lattices to the sets of unions and intersections of left and right quotients of a regular language. For both unions and intersections, we show that the lattices we produce using left and right quotients are dual to each other.…
In this paper, we introduce code distances, a new family of invariants for linear codes. We establish some properties and prove bounds on the code distances, and show that they are not invariants of the matroid (for a linear block code) or…
This paper investigates the concept of self-dual convolutional code. We derive the basic properties of this interesting class of codes and we show how some of the techniques to construct self-dual linear block codes generalize to self-dual…
Recently, the notions of self-orthogonal subspace codes and LCD subspace codes were introduced, and LCD subspace codes obtained from mutually unbiased weighing matrices were studied. In this paper, we provide a method of constructing…
Linear codes with complementary duals (abbreviated LCD) are linear codes whose intersection with their dual is trivial. When they are binary, they play an important role in armoring implementations against side-channel attacks and fault…
We present a new application of multi-orbit cyclic subspace codes to construct large optical orthogonal codes, with the aid of the multiplicative structure of finite fields extensions. This approach is different from earlier approaches…
A new ensemble of structured codes is introduced. These codes are called Quasi Linear Codes (QLC). The QLC's are constructed by taking subsets of linear codes. They have a looser structure compared to linear codes and are not closed under…
In this paper the analogy between differential forms arising from integrals in additive calculus and forms arising from the integrals in product calculus is investigated. It is found that with an appropriate definition of scalar…
We study a new class of codes over Z_2 x Z_2 which we call L-codes. They arise as a natural fifth step in a series of analogies between Kleinian codes, binary codes, lattices and vertex operator algebras. This analogy will be explained in…
In this paper, an algorithm for construction of multiple sets of two dimensional (2D) or matrix unipolar (optical) orthogonal codes has been proposed. Representations of these 2D codes in difference of positions representation (DoPR) have…
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a family of inner products in a finite-dimensional vector space $V$ over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{K}$ to have an orthogonal basis relative to all the inner products. Some applications to…
We give some properties of cosymplectic Lie algebras, we show, in particular, that they support a left symmetric product. We also give some constructions of cosymplectic Lie algebras, as well as a classification in three and…
We study sheaf codes, a type of linear codes with a fixed hierarchical collection of local codes, viewed as a sheaf of vector spaces on a finite topological space we call coded space. Many existing codes, such as tensor product codes,…
A well-known lower bound (over finite fields and some special finite commutative rings) on the Hamming distance of a matrix-product code (MPC) is shown to remain valid over any commutative ring $R$. A sufficient condition is given, as well,…
We study finite-field extensions that preserve the same support as the parity-check matrices defining a given binary CSS code. Here, an LDPC-CSS code refers to a CSS code whose parity-check matrices are orthogonal in the sense that each…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field with $q$ elements and denote by $\theta : \mathbb{F}_q\to\mathbb{F}_q$ an automorphism of $\mathbb{F}_q$. In this paper, we deal with linear codes of $\mathbb{F}_q^n$ invariant under a semi-linear map…
Let $D_{2n}=\langle x,y\mid x^n=1, y^2=1, yxy=x^{-1}\rangle$ be a dihedral group, and $R={\rm GR}(p^2,m)$ be a Galois ring of characteristic $p^2$ and cardinality $p^{2m}$ where $p$ is a prime. Left ideals of the group ring $R[D_{2n}]$ are…
